What Would Jesus Do?

By Editor

We have no idea that Mr. Sheldon, or any one else, for that matter, would run a daily newspaper the way that Jesus would; for it is only Mr. Sheldon's idea or concept of Christianity which will control his methods. Take, for instance, one thing. What Jesus would do may be learned by what He did do while here on the earth. Mr. Sheldon, it is said, will print an edition both morning and afternoon of Saturday, the seventh day, but none on Sunday. Now we know that Jesus would not do this if He conducted a newspaper; for He observed the Sabbath of Jehovah, the seventh day. He believed in the Decalogue. Sunday to Him was like all the other days of the week; and He is "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to-day, and forever."
